April 09, 2006

SHEDDEN, Ontario (AP) -- The bodies of eight men were found Saturday inside four vehicles abandoned in a remote wooded area on a farmer's property in rural Ontario. Police were not disclosing many details about the deaths, except to say that four vehicles were involved, including a tow truck, and that the dead were all men. "We're not in a position to reveal how they were murdered," Ontario Provincial Police Sgt. Dave Rektor said. Police found the bodies after a call from the property owner, who is not considered a suspect. An aerial view showed the vehicles parked within 200 yards of each other, with the bodies still inside. The Ontario coroner and the attorney general's office declined comment.
